Backlinks from "unknown" web sites!

alex-party · 03-28-2007, 06:03 PM

Hello friends,

I recently noticed that in search results, some web sites refer to mine, only because they have a list of domain names in their description, like:
..............................
somewebsite.com - some page title
"domain1.com, domain2.com, domain3.com, domain4.com........"
..............................
It's obviously random domain names hijacking.
Their web content not in anyway related to my web site.
Even more, 1 web site have seriously bad adult content.

How can one make them stop?

Thanks in advance,
P.S. It may happen to you!

They don't have any link to my site, they have my site domain name in their "description" field, that's why it's showing up in search results.

For example someone have a domain name like:
URL: www.badsite.com
TITLE or DESCRIPTION: "We really want to piss off people from mysite.com"

And you have site like:
URL: www.mysite.com

And you search in google for "mysite.com", you'll get "badsite.com" among search results.

I can't remove them from search results using "Google URL Removal Tool", because link is not broken, so is there any other than that option to get rid of them?

You might want to try reporting their unauthorised use of your url in their description field to their ISP.

Good Idea!!! I might just do that, but this web site has just magically disappeared from Google

I haven't done anything. Usually sites don't disappear from search results so quickly, but this one just vanished

Well, I guess problem solved for now

Make sure to check the web site and inform them
